Summary

SENP6 (SUMO specific peptidase 6, HGNC:20944) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6q14.1, encoding Sentrin-specific protease 6 (Q9GZR1). Protease that deconjugates SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3 from targeted proteins. It is a common-essential gene (DepMap: required in 97.9% of cancer cell lines).

Ubiquitin-like molecules (UBLs), such as SUMO1 (UBL1; MIM 601912), are structurally related to ubiquitin (MIM 191339) and can be ligated to target proteins in a similar manner as ubiquitin. However, covalent attachment of UBLs does not result in degradation of the modified proteins. SUMO1 modification is implicated in the targeting of RANGAP1 (MIM 602362) to the nuclear pore complex, as well as in stabilization of I-kappa-B-alpha (NFKBIA; MIM 164008) from degradation by the 26S proteasome. Like ubiquitin, UBLs are synthesized as precursor proteins, with 1 or more amino acids following the C-terminal glycine-glycine residues of the mature UBL protein. Thus, the tail sequences of the UBL precursors need to be removed by UBL-specific proteases, such as SENP6, prior to their conjugation to target proteins (Kim et al., 2000 [PubMed 10799485]). SENPs also display isopeptidase activity for deconjugation of SUMO-conjugated substrates (Lima and Reverter, 2008 [PubMed 18799455]).

Function. Protease that deconjugates SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3 from targeted proteins. Processes preferentially poly-SUMO2 and poly-SUMO3 chains, but does not efficiently process SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3 precursors. Deconjugates SUMO1 from RXRA, leading to transcriptional activation. Involved in chromosome alignment and spindle assembly, by regulating the kinetochore CENPH-CENPI-CENPK complex. Desumoylates PML and CENPI, protecting them from degradation by the ubiquitin ligase RNF4, which targets polysumoylated proteins for proteasomal degradation. Also desumoylates RPA1, thus preventing recruitment of RAD51 to the DNA damage foci to initiate DNA repair through homologous recombination.

Subunit / interactions. Interacts with RXRA. Forms a complex with KAT5-TIP60 and UBE2I in response to UV irradiation. Interacts with RPA1 to maintain it in hyposumoylated state during S phase preventing DNA repair initiation.

Subcellular location. Nucleus.

Tissue specificity. Highly expressed in reproductive organs, such as testis, ovary and prostate.

Pathway. Protein modification; protein sumoylation.

Similarity. Belongs to the peptidase C48 family.
